Help me understand Campy alloy craziness

[ox_rider]

I was watching this http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220262755485&ssPageName=ADME:B:WNA:US:1123 but ducked out when the price got north of $70. When did the price of all things alloy and Campy get crazy? Chorus I can understand, but this is Centaur. What next? $150 Veloce rear mech?

and then Campy will come up with some sort of Hyper Record alloy groupset at 120% the cost of Super Record, and folks will buy.

too bad I didn't hoard the alloy stuff long ago.

Some of us are tired of looking at anodized black ...

Black bars, brakes, cranks, FD, RD, Rims, now only the tires have colors !

I just perfer polished silver. CHROME !!!!

Hey I do like the black look, I just like to have options.

Glad to have 2002 Silver Record ! ;)
